I had only been with the guys for a day and this place already feels like home. I woke up early so I decided to look up 'Why Don't We' on instagram, twitter and YouTube, not expecting to see that many people followed them. I'm not surprised anymore why there was so many people outside the bowling alley, they're famous!
I must've been on the laptop they gave me for hours because Jonah opened my door singing 'good morning' with plates of french toast and bacon in each hand.
"Good morning Y/N, how are you"
"I'm good thank you"
"I assume you've looked at what we do" he laughed, looking at the unfolded laptop beside me.
"Never in my entire life would I have predicted that 5 famous guys will adopt me"
"I wouldn't say we are famous" he laughed.
"Anyways, we have meetings to go to and radio interviews to do sometimes so do you mind being left here alone for an hour or two? We have a radio interview we have to go to right now".
"I don't mind" I replied
"Okay good, again, we shouldn't be out too long because radio interviews are quite quick, please stay safe"
"I will don't you worry" I smiled again.
He walked out of the room and I could hear the front door shutting moments later without hearing the second click for the lock.

I eventually managed to get out of bed after minutes of debating to myself if it is worth moving. An hour later, the front door made a loud click. "JONAH?" I shouted, no reply, "CORBYN?" I shouted, no reply, "ZACH?" I shouted, no reply, "DANIEL?" I shouted, no reply. And finally, "JACK?" I shouted, no reply.. am I being robbed?

SMASH

I recognise that sound, it was a glass breaking. I've never been robbed before, I don't know what to do. Slowly, I walk out onto the balcony over the stairs and peer down into the front room, there's a man wearing a cap and black clothes. I just stood there looking at their every move for minutes. He turns around.
"Hello?!" he shouts. I don't want to reply. "Who are you?" He asks. "That's none of your business" I say quietly, backing away a few paces before running back into my room and barricading the door in terror.

The front door clicks again, I recognise the voice. I think it's Corbyn. "Yo August, what are you doing here?" Who is August? How do they know him?
"I was just waiting for you guys to come back" August replies.
"HEY! Y/N! You okay?" Corbyn asks, I don't reply because I know that 'August' would be listening to our conversation. Corbyn eventually walks into my room after pushing away the desk barricading the door. "Why did you do that?" He questions me.
"Who... who is that downstairs" I shake.
"That's just August, our photographer"
"You never told me that he would be coming while you guys were gone, I thought we were being robbed.." I shiver.

August walks up behind Corbyn and looks at me. "Who's she?" August asks
"That's just Y/N, we adopted her from the orphanage in LA"
"Corbyn, can I talk to you outside?"
"Uh yeah sure" Corbyn follows August to their garden.

Corbyns POV

"Bro, you never told me that you were going to adopt?"
"Our application got accepted this morning, have you not seen her on the news? Her parents died in that plane crash in Spain 2 years ago"
"2 years is a long time ago bro, I don't remember everything I see on the news"
"Well Y/N is staying with us from now on, we felt bad for her so we thought we should do what we can to give her a better life!"
"I get that Corbyn, but what are you going to do when you go on tour? You just gonna leave her here?"
There was a long moment of silence between us, it sounds like August really isn't keen on Y/N but I don't get why, she is the only person in that orphanage that deserved to get adopted, she's amazing.
"I.. I'll have to talk about that to the rest of the guys when they come back"
"Speaking of which, where are the rest?" August questioned.
"The interview finished earlier than planned so they went to get a Jamba Juice, I came to check on Y/N"
I heard the guys walk through the front door.
"GUESS WHO GOT SMOOOTHIIIESS" Zach screeched
"YOU BETTER HAVE GOTTEN ME ONE!" Corbyn shouted back while running back into the house, leaving August in the garden.

Y/N s POV

I've never been so relieved to hear anyone walk into a house screaming about smoothies. I had calmed down shaking in the time Corbyn and August talked outside so I strutted downstairs to see if I had a smoothie waiting for me. There it was, a mango smoothie. I hadn't had a smoothie for 2 years so I was so happy to see one on the polished counter. I decided to scare Daniel while his back was turned by suddenly jumping on his back. He swung me around and said "Here I behold to you, the almighty smoothie, made for yours truly miss Y/LN" in a posh accent. "Oh why thank you sir Seavey" I replied in an equally posh accent. I jumped off of his back, taking the smoothie and jumping onto the white leather couch in the front room cuddled up next to a feathered white pillow.

"Want to hear some of our music?" Jack asked me proudly, reaching for the sound deck. "I would love to" I replied. They introduced their songs like they would at a concert, they had choreography and everything planned out, it was like they had rehearsed it before. They sung me 'Nobody Gotta Know', 'I Depend On You', 'Just To See You Smile' and 'Never Know'. I found myself lost in their music as they sung each word in perfect harmony. Why didn't I know about these guys before?

After the mini concert, the guys went into the kitchen and I fell asleep on the couch.

Zachs POV

"She looked so happy that we held a mini concert for her" I grinned.
"I'm happy that she's happy, but what are we going to do when tour comes up?" Daniel questions as he looks at each guy in the room in worry.
"Did you see how scared she was at the bowling alley seeing all those people? Who knows how she will react if we took her on tour, I want her to come obviously but I'm more concerned for her health" Jonah explained.
"There's nobody to take care of her Jonah if we leave her here" Corbyn replies.
"Why don't we take her on tour anyway and we can see how she does?" Jack suggests. "There's no way we would be allowed to take her on tour with us, all our manager will say is that there is no point in her coming and she can't come" I sighed
"Let's call him anyway" I added on.

Jonah picked up the house phone and called our tour team, he explains how we have to take Y/N on tour. Through the phone I can hear Jonah being told about sending Y/N somewhere but I didn't hear much more. Jonah looked at his shoes and moved them back and forth across the floor in disappointment. "We can't do that to her.." Jonah sighed.
